I'm currently working on a new project: a personalized local that first looks at your (with auto-tagging feature via a small embedded ML model, that does not work 100% well with real cases (works pretty well with my test content, tough :p)) and then tries to fetch results from other search engines, à la seeks/searx/searxng.

This is based on an idea/software by @technomancy@hey.hagelb.org: https://search.technomancy.us/. Follow the links at the bottom of the page for nice articles detailing his motivations and reasoning,

There's still lots of work but i'm pretty proud of my UI (i'm still quite a noob with CSS, so when i do something a bit coherent i'm happy) and tag searching works honestly great for now. I'll need to see in the future what happens when the bookmark collection grows.

I'm happy!

    @ololduck Have you seen Hister or ArchiveBox?

      @chebra@mstdn.io Okay, both are incredible, and mostly do what i wanted, and thank you for bringing them to my attention. But now, i don't really have any excuse to work on my project, do I ? :D

        @ololduck yeah I thought that would be the main problem 😆 but it feels like those are three similar ideas, partially overlapping, maybe some combination would be great, interoperability. Rather than duplicating features and fracturing the effort.

          @ololduck looks very sharp! nice work

          consider also including a manifesto; that is one of my favorite features of mine =D

          What crate do you use to embed the model?

            @strbrgr@social.linux.pizza I'm using fastembed-rs: https://lib.rs/crates/fastembed, with the default model (≃ 100MB), it works quite well but i think i need to properly purify the content to tag. Here's my whole tagging setup, i had quite a bit of work to properly figure out how to best use the tagging feature and to create "starting" tags: https://bpa.st/PSGA (
